5 Reasons Why Resident Evil 3 Remake is Waste of Money

On April 3, 2020, Capcom released remake to the blockbuster of a game Resident evil 3: Nemesis (1999). How was it? Well, the reviews are fine. It has got 9/10 average ratings on Steam and overall, 4.8/5 on GameStop.

However, in the post, my primary concern is, should you buy it? Well, the answer is no. Check out the 5 reasons why you shouldn’t purchase Resident Evil 3 Remake right away –

Cutout Iconic Moments

I’m not saying he’s absent in the game. In fact, he does show up but, in the beginning, or in a chase.

Not only this, but nemesis 2nd transformation is also cut from the game. Now, his 3rd transformation is his 2nd. It’s weird to see him run like a dog on his legs and arms. It’s just bizarre.

Furthermore, it looks quite strange to see Nemesis grappling like he’s Batman. Throughout the game, I always felt like Nemesis wasn’t the same as the one in the Resident Evil 3 original version.

Overpriced Game

A game that finishes up within 3-5 hours that too for an average player is too fast-paced (At least for me). I believe at around $60; Resident Evil 3 Remake is overpriced. Being an average player, I finished the game within 4+ hours. However, if you’re a pro player, you can finish it up in 3 hours.

Well, that’s way too early for the game that’s way too overpriced. If you still want to purchase this game, I would recommend you to purchase it when there’s any on-going offer is available. It would be the best deal if you purchase the game within $30.

A DLC worthy Remake?

Well, that’s what I and several Die-hard Resident Evil fans feel. It would have been best if the recently released game was a DLC for Resident Evil 3 remake.

I’m not saying it’s that bad. I did like the intro scene and some time-to-time callbacks to Resident Evil 3. However, apart from this, the survivor element that made the original Resident Evil 3 popular was missing in the remake version.

Most of the in-game puzzles were super easy and even the Racoon City feels empty. If I compare the Resident Evil 3 remake with Resident Evil 2, I feel a lot of things were left out. Be it the 2 campaigns in Resident Evil 2 remake as compared to ½ campaign in Resident Evil 3 remake.

Resident Evil 3 Remake Requirements

If you’re still not convinced and want to purchase Resident Evil 3 Remake, make your system fulfills following minimum or recommended criteria –

With such specifications, you can easily run this game at 60 FPS. The max. performance you’ll get is 1080P/60FPS and 720P/60FPS.

Final Words

That’s all for now. I hope with this post, you might have got an idea of why you shouldn’t buy Resident Evil 3 Remake right away at the launch price of $59.99. Instead of this, I would recommend you to wait for some time as Final Fantasy 7 remake is all set to get a worldwide release on April 10 of 2020. As soon as the game release, I’ll post my complete review on it. So, stay tuned with me for further updates.
